Does anyone have a pic of the pommel end of their ANH vader?
Trying to get my seven grips accurately on.
Thanks,

There is a japanese starwars site that is something like lightsaber.jp or something like that. It's on my favorites on my other computer so I'll have to get it later. But it does have both the 6 and 7 grip Vader ANH blueprints drawn by the amazing Darth Saber.
 
ok, i did find one end shot drawing for lukes saber from ANH.

and i know its not the vader saber, but interestingly enough, it shows the ears on the right side of activator.

i know almost every pic you see its on the other side. but in the movie itself, its on the right side. dont beleive me, look at the movie scene again when ben hands off the saber and luke fires it up. pause and screen cap it, you can clearly see without any doubts the ears are on the right side.

this doesnt have anything to do with vaders saber, i know, just thought since i pasted the pic, i would say that too.

Well, that's the way I always have viewed this saber. It just looks cooler that way, and it's the natural position for flashguns anyway. To hell with the ROTS saber for copying the "modifyed by luke" ESB saber and ruining the continuity.
 
after i found this drawing that is the way i set all mine up, all mine are real graflexs in ANH except for the replica which is in the ESB with computer card activator. that one gets the top turned 180 so ears are on the left side.
